WHY NAVI MUMBAI?

30 Years ago, it was a green field site; a dream in the planner’s mind as a local for a new town. Today it is home to more than 1m. Well planned transportation, network connectivity of road, rail and water ways system makes it easily accessible. Spread over an area of 344 sq.km. the satellite city of Navi Mumbai has various sports complexes but a very few with field Hockey training facility included in it. The few complexes which have the field hockey training provisions with the required infrastructure are either not well equipped or are not made available for everyone’s use as in are a part of private schools/ colleges etc. The site is located at Ghansoli node zone where as such there are no nearby facility for hockey training, the people who want to train and play the sport have to travel to the other parts of Mumbai and Navi Mumbai to do so. Ghansoli is easily accessible to the people from various parts of the city, state, and country (India) via railways/ roadways / airways. The NMMCT bus depot is located towards the south-east corner if the site. The proposed Navi Mumbai international airport is will ease the traffic for the people from out of the state to reach the site. The new metro and highway projects are in progress in the close vicinity of the site. The site is located in a residential zone thus there are various schools

and colleges from where the crowd for participation in the physical activity and Hockey training can be attracted from very early ages and can be given to host various competitions for inter schools and zone level.

HOCKEY ACADEMY CLUB As there are many schools nearby the site which also lacks basic playing areas due to the lack of area they have, can come and held their annual sporting events in the academy and also inturn promote filed hockey at a younger age at school level. As shown in Fig below, there are very few sports venues nearby the site and the ones which are there are not up to the mark and only a few that have Hockey facility, hence a good quality sporting & recreational space is needed by the people of Navi Mumbai.

SITE CONTEXT

The site is has been swamped on the western portion and dumped with malba on the majority of the eastern portion on which the vegetations have taken over. There are a number of encroachments from slum dwellers and a few patches in the eastern portion have been cleared out for small agricultural ventures.

TRAFFIC PATTERN

The Main road bound to the site is the Gangagiri Maharaj marg which is the extension of the Palm beach road towards Ghansoli. This main road

connects the ghansoli area with Vashi via Koper khairane road, which experince a mild traffic during rush hours due to the presence to the high residentials complexes. The road running towards the site however experiences very mild traffic flow during both weekdays and weekends

Mild flow of traffic observed on Gangagiri as per observation during day and night period.

Soile Type

The soil in the semi dry Deccan plateau is mostly black basalt soil. This type of soil is clayey, retains moisture and is rich in humus. The soil is commonly known as 'black cotton soil' or 'regur' because it is best suited for the cultivation of cotton.

Mangroves

Dense Mangroves cover the western bound area of the entire Ghansoli district. the

Mangroves extend from the western bound borders and end up in the thane creek.

CLIMATE ANALYSIS

This city has a tropical climate. There is significant rainfall in most months of the year. The short dry season has little effect on the overall climate. The climate here is classified as Am by the Köppen-Geiger system. The average annual temperature in Ghansoli is 27.0 C. About 2760 mm of precipitation falls annually.

The above chart is the Wind wheel representing the Ghansoli area indicating the wind speed and wind direction with temprature and Humidity ranges over the period of 12 months.

The least amount of rainfall occurs in January. The average in this month is 0 mm. With an average of 1034 mm, the most precipitation falls in July. The temperatures are highest on average in May, at around 30.1 °C. January has the lowest average temperature of the year. It is 23.4 °C. The variation in the precipitation between the driest and wettest months is 1034 mm. During the year, the average temperatures vary by 6.7 °C.

Based on the Climatic analysis following are few of the techinques and design starategies to incorporate in the planing of the hockey academy • Screened porches and patios can provide passive comfort cooling by ventilation in warm weather and can prevent insect problems Long narrow building floorplan can help maximize cross ventilation in temperate and hot humid climates. • High mass interior surfaces (tite, slate, stone, brick or adobe) feel naturally cool on hot days and can reduce day-to-night temperature swings. • Keep the building small (right-sized) because excessive floor area wastes heating and cooling energy.

Minimize or eliminate west facing glazing to reduce summer and fall afternoon heat gain Raise the indoor comfort thermostat setpoint to reduce air conditioning energy consumption (especially if occupants wear seasonally appropriate clothing). Traditional passive homes in hot windy dry climates used enclosed well shaded courtyards, with a small fountain to provide wind protected microclimates. Traditional passive homes in hot humid climates used light weight construction with openable walls and shaded outdoor porches, raised above ground. Orient most of the glass to the north, shaded by vertical fins in very hot climates, because there are essentially no passive solar needs High Efficiency air conditioner or heat pump (at least Energy Star) should prove cost effective in this climate A radiant barrier (shiny foil) will help reduce radiated heat gain through the roof in hot climates

On hot days ceiling fans or indoor air motion can make it seem cooler by 5 degrees F (2.8C) or more, thus less air conditioning is needed. Use plant materials (bushes, trees, ivy-covered walls) especially on the west to minimize heat gain (f summer rains support native plant growth). Use light colored building materials and cool roofs (with high emissivity) to ducted heat gain.

A whole house fan or natural ventilation can store nighttime ‘coolth’ in high mass interior surfaces (night flushing), to reduce or eliminate air conditioning. Flat roofs work well in hot dry climates (especially if light colored)
